Industrial applications catalysis

In contrast to heterogeneous catalysis, industrial applications of homogeneous catalysis are relatively scarce, largely being restricted to the speciality and pharmaceutical sectors. Homogeneous catalysts have been well researched, since their catalytic centres can be relatively easily...

T he six years since the first Advances in Chemistry Series volume, Homogeneous Catalysis—Industrial Applications and Implications, (Number 70) have been a period of mushrooming activity in the field. Not only has this activity been marked by the discovery of new types of catalysts and new insights into reaction mechanisms, but several major commercial processes based on homogeneous catalysts have been developed.
